في الحلقة الخاصة دي من البودكاسترز، بنستضيف اللواء سمير فرج… واحد من أهم العقول اللي فعلاً فاهمة المنطقة وما يجري فيها. هيفتح لنا ملفات عمرها ما اتكلمت بالشكل دا قبل كده: السلام، الأمن القومي، والقضية الفلسطينية… وإزاي شكل المنطقة اتغيّر بعد حرب غزة. هنتكلم عن تأثير يوم 7 أكتوبر على العالم كله، ودور مصر الحقيقي — سياسيًا وعسكريًا — من غير تجميل ولا دبلوماسية. وهنعرف ليه الجيش المصري دايمًا محسوب وسط أقوى جيوش العالم، وبيتشاف إزاي على المستوى الدولي. اللواء فرج كمان هيحكي عن علاقته وتعاملاته المباشرة مع قادة كبار زي السادات، كيسنجر، توني بلير، وترامب… وكواليس عمرها ما اتقالت. وهندخل في ملفات حساسة جدًا: دور حماس في الحرب التكنولوجيا العسكرية وشراء السلاح الحرب الإلكترونية ولجان السوشيال ميديا وتأمين الحدود والمخابرات مع مواقف شخصية عاشها بنفسه في خدمته سنين طويلة. وفي الآخر… هنعرف ليه المصريين علاقتهم ببلدهم مختلفة، وليه الانتماء بيزيد كل ما الظروف بتصعب. حلقة قوية… وصريحة جدًا. In this special episode of ElPodcasters, we host General Samir Farag, one of the most respected strategic thinkers in Egypt and the Arab world. He offers a clear, direct view on peace, national security, and the Palestinian cause, while revealing rare insights about the region after the Gaza war. The conversation covers the impact of October 7 on global politics, Egypt's real political and military role, and how world powers perceive the strength of the Egyptian Army. General Farag also shares behind-the-scenes stories involving global figures such as Sadat, Kissinger, Tony Blair, and Donald Trump. We dive into key topics like Hamas's role, military technology, weapons acquisition, cyber warfare, and the influence of social-media operations, alongside personal stories from his intelligence work, presidential visits, and border security. He closes with a powerful reflection on why Egyptians have such a deep connection to their homeland, and why this bond continues to grow.

To meet the sustainability goals of Agenda 2030, there is a push for alternative, cruelty-free meat and GMOs. Many people are unaware of the mutant foods they are eating, and have no warning or indication as to how the food was made or prepared. With the push for a Socialist green economy and the overblown quest to eliminate methane from the atmosphere, foods are being brought to market that could be made with a chemistry set instead of what nature has to offer. Henry Kissinger once said, "he who controls the food controls the world." It is also evident that he who renames the food for political reasons controls what is being consumed and what isn't.

From 2010 - Barak Goodman talks about the American Experience documentary film "My Lai' - an examination of the most horrific massacre of the Viet Nam War. We are resharing archival interviews with Goodman in the wake of the news that PBS has cancelled "American Experience" because of federal budget cuts. Goodman's recent film "Kissinger" turned out to be his last for American Experience (at least for the foreseeable future.)
In its duration, geographical reach, and ferocity, World War II was unprecedented, and the effects on those who fought it and their loved ones at home, immeasurable. The heroism of the men and women who won the war may be well documented, but we know too little about the pain and hardships veterans endured upon their return home. Drawing from veterans' memoirs, oral histories, and government documents, acclaimed historian David Nasaw illuminates a hidden chapter of American history—one of trauma, resilience, and a country in transition in THE WOUNDED GENERATION: Coming Home After World War II. Nearly 16.4 million Americans served in the U.S. Armed Forces in World War II. This book “is an account of the aftereffects that lived on in the bodies, hearts, and minds of those who fought, those who awaited their return, and the nation that had won the war but had now to readjust to peace.”As Nasaw makes evident, the veterans who returned to America were not the same people as those who had left for war, and the nation to which they came back was not the one they left behind. Contrary to the prevailing narratives of triumph, here are the largely unacknowledged realities the veterans—and the nation—faced, radically reshaping our understanding of this era as a bridge to today, as we mark the 80th anniversary of the end of World War II.Nasaw presents a complicated portrait of those who brought the war home with them, among whom were the period's most influential political and cultural leaders, including John F. Kennedy, Robert Dole, and Henry Kissinger; J. D. Salinger and Kurt Vonnegut; Harry Belafonte and Jimmy Stewart. In The Wounded Generation, Nasaw illustrates the indelible stories of veterans and their loved ones as they confronted the aftershocks of World War II.David Nasaw is a historian, two-time Pulitzer Prize finalist, and bestselling author of The Last Million, named a best book of the year by NPR, Kirkus Reviews, and History Today; The Patriarch, a New York Times Five Best Non-Fiction Books of the Year; Andrew Carnegie, a New York Times Notable Book of the Year and the winner of the American History Book Prize; and The Chief, winner of the Bancroft Prize. He was the Arthur M. Schlesinger, Jr. Professor of History at the CUNY Graduate Center and the president of the Society of American Historians. In 2023, he was honored by the New York Public Library as a “Library Lion.” Nasaw's father served in the Army Medical Corps in Eritrea during World War II. He lives in New York City.#worldwar2 #authorpodcastPhoto Credit: Alex Irklievski
Patrick Bet-David examines the United States' relationship with China and Russia. Which country is a better strategic partner for the United States? Did Nixon and Kissinger accidentally create the rise of China? And is Trump reviving their Cold War strategy to rebalance global power?This video breaks down the strategy behind triangular diplomacy and the geopolitical chess game between the United States, China, and Russia that has shaped world power for more than 50 years.
Nearly 16.4 million Americans served in the U.S. Armed Forces in World War II, and for millions of survivors, the fighting left many of them physically and mentally broken for life. There was a 25% death rate in Japanese POW camps like Bataan, where starvation and torture were rampant, and fierce battles against suicidal Imperial Japanese forces, like at Iwo Jima, where 6,800 Americans died. Additionally, the psychological toll of witnessing Holocaust atrocities and enduring up to three years away from home intensified the war’s brutality. This is why when they returned home, they had physical and psychological wounds that festered, sometimes for years, sometimes for decades, and sometimes for the rest of their lives. Veterans suffering from recurring nightmares, uncontrollable rages, and social isolation were treated by doctors who had little understanding of PTSD, a term that didn’t enter the DSM until 1984. Returning veterans and their families were forced to double up with their parents or squeeze into overcrowded, substandard shelters as the country wrestled with a housing crisis. Divorce rates doubled, with more than 1 million GIs leaving or being left by their wives by 1950. Alcoholism was rampant, and an entire generation became addicted to smoking. To explore this dark shadow that hung over the WW2 generation, we’re joined by David Nasaw, author of The Wounded Generation: Coming Home After World War II. Those affected include the period’s most influential political and cultural leaders, including John F. Kennedy, Robert Dole, and Henry Kissinger; J. D. Salinger and Kurt Vonnegut; Harry Belafonte and Jimmy Stewart. We look at the ways the horrors of World War 2 shaped their lives, but we also see incredible resilience and those who found ways to move past the horrors of their wartime experiences, and what we can learn from that today.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The China Matrix is a brilliant, and very timely, new book by Lee Smith. It chronicles how successive presidents of both parties and countless leaders of America's business, political and other elites have subordinated national security and economic strength to the benefit of the Chinese Communist Party, and often their personal enrichment. Mr. Smith documents how Donald Trump started warning about this sell-out pioneered by Henry Kissinger decades ago, and how as a presidential candidate and in office he has worked to put America First, instead. President Trump will be tempted this week to ignore the “unrestricted warfare” the CCP has long waged against us by approving yet another “trade deal” that props up that mortal enemy. A generation ago, Ronald Reagan faced a similar choice at Reykjavik – and declined. Will Mr. Trump do the same, or join the China Class? This is Frank Gaffney.
سهگانهی جنگ ظفار (۲) - ایران چگونه وارد جنگ شد؟ تو دههی ۱۹۷۰، خلیج فارس صحنهی یکی از پیچیدهترین درگیریهای جنگ سرد بود. جنگ در عمان، به ویژه در منطقهی ظفار، به سود کمونیستها پیش میرفت. همونجور که تو اپیزود پیشین مدبویز گفتیم، تروریستهای مارکسیست-لنینیست ظفار با پشتیبانی مستقیم شوروی، یمن جنوبی، چین و باقی کشورهای کمونیستی جهان کنترل بخشهای بزرگی از جنوب عمان رو به دست گرفته بودند. این پیشروی نه تنها سلطنت جوان قابوس رو تهدید میکرد، بلکه میتونست کمونیستها رو در موقعیتی قرار دهد که بر تنگهی هرمز، این شاهراه حیاتی صادرات نفت جهان دست پیدا کنند.تصور کنید: شورشیانی که شاه اونا رو «وحشیتر از کمونیستها» توصیف میکرد، کنترل ساحل مقابل تنگه رو به دست بیاورند. این امری نبود که ایران، به عنوان قدرت برتر منطقه، بتونه تحمل کند. شاه که خودش رو نگهبان خلیج فارس میدانست، نمیتونست اجازه بده کمونیسم مانند خورهای به قلب منطقه نفوذ کنه و امنیت صادرات نفت ایران که بیش از ۹۰ درصد درآمد کشور رو تشکیل میداد، به خطر بندازه.سلطان جوان عمان، قابوس بن سعید، مسیر اصلاحات و ترقی کشور رو در پیش گرفته بود اما در برابر بحران ظفار، دستبسته بود. شورشیان با تاکتیکهای چریکی، حملات غافلگیرانه و حمایت خارجی، ارتش کوچک عمان رو زمینگیر کرده بودند. متحدان سنتی قابوس، یعنی انگلیسیها هم کمک شایانی روی زمین ارائه نمیکردند. سلطان قابوس در این زمان در خاطراتش نوشت که بدون کمک خارجی، سقوط سلطنتم اجتنابناپذیر است.بحران عمیقتر شد وقتی شورشیان در سال ۱۹۷۲ کنترل شهرهایی مانند راکیوت رو به دست گرفتند و حتی به سمت مسقط، پایتخت، پیشروی کردند. سلطان قابوس دست به دامن عربها و شیخنشینها شد. اون از عربستان سعودی، امارات متحده عربی، کویت و دیگران درخواست کمک کرد. عربستان کمک مالی و تسلیحاتی محدودی ارایه داد، اما از اعزام نیرو خودداری کرد. امارات و کویت هم ترجیح دادند در حاشیه بمانند. تنها اردن بود که با اعزام نیرویی برای آموزش ارتش عمان، یک پشتیبانی جدی از خود نشان داد. این کمکها البته که کافی نبود. تمام دربها به روی عمان بسته بود به جز یک در، دری که به پدر منطقه، بزرگ منطقه و قدرت اصلی منطقه میرسید: ایران در عصر محمدرضا پهلوی. شاه با موفقیت در پیشبرد دکترین نیکسون، آماده میشد تا نقش «پلیس خلیج فارس» رو در حفظ ثبات این منطقه از جهان نشان بدهد و اکنون ظفار رو هم فرصتی برای نمایش قدرت میدید.درخواستهای سلطان قابوس از تهران برای دستگیری و کمک، به فوریت از سوی ایران اجابت میشد. نخستین سفر خارجی قابوس به عنوان سلطان، در اکتبر ۱۹۷۱ به ایران بود، جایی که در جشنهای ۲۵۰۰ ساله امپراتوری ایران شرکت کرد و با شاه ملاقات کرد. این دیدار زمینهساز همکاری شد. شاه که آمادهی نجات منطقه از چنگال کمونیسم بود، سخاوت ایران رو به عمان نشان داد. کمکها از سال ۱۹۷۲ آغاز شد و به آرامی گسترش یافت اما مسیر مشارکت ایران در جنگ عمان، چندان هم که فکر میکنید هموار نبود. از کمکهای فنی و لجستیکی و آموزشی تا اعزام رسمی نیروهای ارتش شاهنشاهی به خط مقدم نبرد با کمونیستهای ظفار، مسیری چند ساله پیموده شد اما بسیار حسابشده و سیاستمدارانه.اپیزود ۷۴ پادکست مدبویز در ادامهی چندگانهی جنگ ظفار، این مسیر رو بررسی میکند. این دومین قسمت از مجموعهای است که داستان کامل این جنگ فراموششده رو روایت میکند: از ریشههای شورش در ۱۹۶۵ تا اوج درگیریها در دهه ۱۹۷۰، و هنوز به پایان نرسیده؛ قسمتهای پسین این چندگانه، جزییات بیشتری از عملیات نهایی و پیامدهای منطقهای رو پوشش خواهند داد.در این اپیزود، دشواریهای حضور نظامی ایران در عمان، دلیل و چرایی این مداخله (از جمله ترس از نفوذ شوروی و حفاظت از منافع نفتی) و البته نگاههای منطقهای و جهانی به آن رو در اوج جنگ سرد بررسی کردهایم. کشورهای عربی مانند عربستان با تردید به دخالت ایران مینگریستند، در حالی که آمریکا اون رو بخشی از استراتژی ضدکمونیستی میدانستند. این اپیزود، پاسخی به این پرسش است که چرا ایران، عمان رو نجات داد؟ آیا این فقط یک کمک برادرانه بود یا بخشی از جاهطلبیهای شاه برای تسلط بر خلیج فارس؟ پنجم آبان ۲۵۸۴ / ۱۴۰۴گوینده: مجتبی حصامینویسنده: ساسان آقایییادبود این شماره: صدراعظمی امیرکبیرتقدیم شماره ۷۴ به: هوشنگ نهاوندی * منابعی که در نوشتن این اپیزود از اونها استفاده شده، در زیر لیست میشه:منابع انگلیسی:1.

In the wake of the sad news that PBS has had to cancel the documentary series American Experience, we are replaying some past interviews that previewed previous films in the series. From 2005, 20 years ago, is this interview with Barak Goodman in which he talks about his film "Kinsey," which examines the life and legacy of Alfred Kinsey and the sometimes controversial research which he conducted on sexual behavior. The film can be purchased on DVD - is currently available on YouTube - and may be available through the PBS app. {Goodman's most recent American Experience film, "Kissinger," airs Monday and Tuesday evening (Oct. 27 & 28.) My interview with Goodman about "Kissinger" aired Friday, the 24th of October.)
We speak with award-winning documentarian Barak Goodman about his latest film for the PBS series American Experience. "Kissinger" - a 2-part film airing Monday and Tuesday evening on PBS (including channel 10 in Milwaukee) - examines the life and career of Henry Kissinger, one of the most famous and controversial figures in the last sixty years. By the way, this appears to be the final film to air on the series; due to budget cuts, PBS has been forced to cancel American Experience. (Goodman is continuing to make documentaries that will air elsewhere.) Those of us who have loved this series over the years can only hope that it will return someday.
L'histoire semble absurde, presque inventée. Et pourtant, elle est vraie. En février 1973, le dirigeant chinois Mao Zedong fit à Henry Kissinger, conseiller diplomatique du président américain Richard Nixon, une proposition qui reste l'une des plus extravagantes de la diplomatie moderne : envoyer dix millions de femmes chinoises aux États-Unis.Une proposition déconcertanteLe contexte est crucial. En 1972, Nixon avait ouvert la voie à un rapprochement historique entre Washington et Pékin, mettant fin à plus de vingt ans d'hostilité. L'année suivante, Kissinger effectue une nouvelle visite en Chine pour consolider cette relation naissante. Lors d'une rencontre au ton parfois ironique, Mao, affaibli mais encore maître du verbe, lance cette idée :« Nous avons trop de femmes. Pourquoi ne pas vous en envoyer dix millions ? »Selon les notes de Kissinger, Mao disait cela avec un humour décalé, mais sur un fond de réflexion démographique réelle. À l'époque, la Chine comptait déjà plus de 800 millions d'habitants, et Mao voyait cette croissance comme un fardeau économique.Une blague… mais pas complètementCette proposition n'était évidemment pas sérieuse au sens diplomatique du terme. Kissinger l'a lui-même interprétée comme une plaisanterie politique, typique du style provocateur du dirigeant chinois. Mais elle révélait une préoccupation authentique : Mao redoutait l'explosion démographique de son pays, à une époque où la planification des naissances n'était pas encore mise en place.En même temps, l'idée contenait une pointe de calcul géopolitique. Mao suggérait, avec cynisme, que l'arrivée massive de femmes chinoises provoquerait aux États-Unis un désordre social et démographique comparable à celui que connaissait la Chine — une façon de rappeler à Kissinger la force de son pays et la complexité de sa gestion.Un symbole de la diplomatie maoïsteCette scène illustre le style unique de Mao : mélange d'ironie, de provocation et de stratégie. Il utilisait souvent l'humour pour tester ses interlocuteurs étrangers et mesurer leurs réactions. Derrière la boutade, il envoyait un message : la Chine, même isolée, était un acteur qu'il fallait prendre au sérieux.Cette anecdote, aujourd'hui encore, symbolise la transition du monde bipolaire de la Guerre froide vers une diplomatie plus subtile, où les mots – même les plus extravagants – servaient à redéfinir les rapports de force. Mao n'a jamais envoyé dix millions de Chinoises, mais il a bel et bien envoyé un signal retentissant : la Chine ne plaisantait jamais vraiment, même quand elle semblait le faire. Hébergé par Acast.

The Nobel Peace Prize was awarded to María Corina Machado, a far-right Venezuelan coup-plotter who has long been funded by the US government.

This week's show features stories from France 24, Radio Deutsche-Welle, Radio Havana Cuba. http://youthspeaksout.net/swr251010.mp3 (29:00) From FRANCE- Tuesday was October 7th and there were commemorations in the Israeli press as well as the international papers. In France the President, currently Macron, appoints the Prime Minister- a month ago Sebastian Lecornu was given the position, after 2 others had failed in the last 12 months, and now he has resigned- this had led to calls for Macron to call snap elections or resign- this is a political crisis talked about in the second press review. Then following Trumps apparently successful first phase of a peace deal in Palestine, the press speculated on whether he would see his dream of a Nobel Peace prize come to pass. In Venezuela there have been large protests against the US military assassinations of boats allegedly transporting drugs in the Caribbean- and President Maduro claimed to have prevented a false flag operation on the US Embassy in Caracas. An interview with Phil Gunson of the International Crisis Group on the conflict between the US and Venezuela. From GERMANY- On Friday all the boats in the Global Sumud Flotilla had been captured by Israeli troops in international waters and the crews taken to prisons in Israel. Many countries represented in the 450 crew members have objected to the Israeli action, and massive protests took place around the world. An interview with journalist and Cambridge lecturer Alina Trabattoni about the protests in Italy, calling for government action to declare Palestinian statehood and charges of genocide against Israel. From CUBA- The UK has announced plans to crackdown even further on protests- another 500 were arrested on terrorism charges on Saturday for carrying signs saying they support Palestine Action.

Could artificial intelligence be the breakthrough Haiti desperately needs? In this episode, I explore how AI technology might revolutionize peace negotiations and conflict resolution in one of the world's most dangerous situations. Drawing on insights from Henry Kissinger and Eric Schmidt's groundbreaking book "Genesis," I break down how AI can analyze complex conflict dynamics, process massive amounts of data, and generate innovative solutions that human negotiators might miss. What You'll Learn: ✅ How AI can transform peace negotiations in active conflict zones ✅ The critical difference between forgiveness and reconciliation ✅ Why justice and peace often conflict in Haiti's situation ✅ The strategic importance of ceasefires vs. truces ✅ AI's role in analyzing gang dynamics and power structures ✅ How machine learning can identify negotiation opportunities ✅ Real strategies for implementing AI-driven peace processes Key Insights from "Genesis" Henry Kissinger and Eric Schmidt's final collaboration reveals how AI is reshaping governance and international relations. I apply their framework specifically to Haiti's gang crisis, showing how technology could break decades of failed peace attempts. The Haiti Crisis Context With gang violence controlling 80% of Port-au-Prince and humanitarian conditions deteriorating daily, traditional approaches have failed. This video explores whether AI represents a genuine paradigm shift or just another failed promise.

Artificial intelligence isn't just another invention — it may be humanity's first non-biological species. Craig Mundie, former Microsoft Chief Research and Strategy Officer and co-author of Genesis with Henry Kissinger and Eric Schmidt, explores what happens as AI begins to make decisions once made by humans.Who decides what AI should do? Who makes it obey? And what if it doesn't?The stakes? Nothing less than the future of human civilization.
Sarah and JVL talk about big-tent liberalism—who's in and who's out of the l-word tent. JVL goes on a riff on Henry Kissinger, which you are absolutely going to HATE. And then we get the main event: JVL doesn't think [gestures broadly] all this is fixable. Sarah has a plan to fix it. Who's right?
Most leaders think they're setting the tone—but often, it's someone else. Matt breaks down how to identify the real influencers in the room, recognize subtle shifts, and build a repeatable process for situational mastery.From his decades in sports medicine and leadership research, Matt shows how the same tools used to train Olympic athletes apply to executives, dads, and anyone navigating high-stakes conversations.TL;DR* Situational mastery ≠ luck: it's about recognizing, reordering, responding, and reflecting (the R4 framework).* Invisible cues rule the room: deep sighs, eye rolls, micro-pauses—miss these and you miss the moment.* Leaders aren't always the influencers: figure out who others look to for cues, and win them as allies.* Tacit knowledge = wisdom: mastery comes from integrating hindsight, insight, and foresight (3D thinking).* The pace of change breaks hindsight: you can't solve today's problems with yesterday's logic—blend past, present, and future.* No solo mastery: like Dickens' Scrooge, you need “ghosts” (mentors, coaches, truth-tellers) to correct blind spots.Memorable lines* “The metrics of success shift every time the room shifts.”* “Most leaders think they're setting the tone—usually, they're not.”* “Tacit knowledge is intuition you can trust, and it can be learned.”* “You can't solve today's problems with yesterday's logic.”* “Every leader needs to know their Kissinger in the room.”GuestMatt Kutz, PhD — Professor of Sports Medicine & Athletic Training; VP of the World Federation of Athletic Training and Therapy; author of 8+ books on leadership, human performance, and global strategy.LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/drmattkutz/Website: http://www.matthewkutz.comWhy this mattersLeaders today operate in a VUCA world—volatile, uncertain, complex, ambiguous. Titles don't guarantee influence, and old playbooks don't work. Contextual intelligence bridges the gap between knowing and being: it's not just about logic or intuition, but the fusion of both in real time.If you want to lead effectively—whether in boardrooms, classrooms, or family rooms—you need the ability to read the invisible cues, reframe priorities on the fly, and adapt without losing credibility.Call to ActionIf this conversation lit something up for you, don't just let it fade. Come join me inside the Second Life Leader community on Skool. That's where I share the frameworks, field reports, and real stories of reinvention that don't make it into the podcast.

Iain Dale interviews former chancellor, foreign secretary and health secretary Sir Jeremy Hunt live at the Edinburgh Fringe. They talk about the differing challenges of the various jobs, what it's like living in Number 11 Downing Street, meeting Henry Kissinger and more!
At the EUVC Summit 2025, the stage belonged to a voice shaped by geopolitics, defense, and the future of industrial innovation: Sebastian von Ribbentrop, Managing Partner at Join Capital.Sebastian took us on a journey—one that started in Berlin in 2017 with a cornerstone commitment from Eiser Capital, and has since expanded to NATO, Ukraine, and beyond.Not Just Startups. Not Just Capital.Join was born when European engineers left corporates like Siemens and Airbus to build their own ventures—but weren't getting funded.Sebastian and his team stepped in. Today, with 148 LPs (90% from across Europe's industrial heartlands), Join has become a backbone for the builders reimagining enterprise and defense.The paradigm shift became undeniable in 2023, when the NATO Innovation Fund wrote its largest ticket into Join Fund II. It wasn't just capital—it was a mandate to help reshape defense and industrialization.A New Industrial MomentFrom Washington's NATO anniversary to trips into Ukraine, Sebastian's message was clear: the defense supply chain has transformed.It is now:FastTargetedSmartAnd while Europe faces inefficiencies (43 different tanks vs. one Abrams in the U.S.), it also faces a massive market opportunity.Billions at PlayThe scale is unprecedented:€200 billion from Ursula von der Leyen into defense & infrastructure€500+ billion from Germany's new chancellor, Matz$500 billion floated by Trump over the next five yearsThese aren't subsidies—they're revenues. Offset programs that give companies the ability to build products, not just pitch ideas.DARPA, Dual Use & the Technology RaceSebastian reminded the room: shocks create breakthroughs. Sputnik birthed DARPA, which still deploys $4 billion annually into challenges.Now, the race is on—dual-use technology, export restrictions, inexpensive smart radar systems taking down next-gen jets.Europe, he argued, must catch up. But it has the chance to lead.“Geopolitics,” he quoted Kissinger, “is 100% personal.” And Europe must take responsibility—urgently.Leadership With TeethSebastian's talk wasn't about abstractions. It was about:How wars reshape supply chains overnightHow NATO's backing changes venture capitalHow Europe can seize its industrial and defense momentBecause leadership in this decade won't be written in press releases. It will be written in supply chains, radar systems, and the speed of capital deployment.Congratulations to Sebastian von Ribbentrop and Join Capital—for reminding the ecosystem that industrial innovation isn't just defense spending. It's Europe's opportunity to lead in a world being reshaped, fast.
سهگانهیجنگ ظفار )۱( - خاورمیانه در دههی ۱۹۶۰ و مقدمات برتری نظامی ایرانخاورمیانه و خلیج فارس تو دههی ۶۰ و ۷۰ میلادی، تبدیل شده بود به نقطهی کانونی نزاع جهان کمونیسم و جهان سرمایهداری. بریتانیاییها داشتند از خلیج فارس میرفتند و آمریکا هم پس از جنگ ویتنام نمیتونست باز هزینههای نظامی منطقهی پرآشوب چون خاورمیانه رو به تنهایی به دوش بکشه و از امنیت این شاهراه جهانی استفاده کنه.برخلاف اینها، شوروی کاملن آماده بود تا خلا قدرت رو تو خلیج فارس پر کنه و یه خاورمیانهیکمونیستی بسازه، امری بسیار پرمخاطره برای ایران شاهنشاهی که داشت براساس به برنامهی اقتصادی دقیق، تبدیل به یه قدرت اقتصادی میشد.شاه متوجه ضعف غربیها و اشتیاق خطرناک شوروی برای بلعیدن کشورهای عربی بود و خودش رو آمادهی دفاع از منافع استراتژیک و هژمونیک ایران تو خاورمیانه و خلیج فارس میکرد. خریدهای نظامی پیشرفتهی ایران و نوسازی سریع ارتش شاهنشاهی با همین هدف انجام میشد. ایران نه تنها توان سیاسی، اقتصادی و انگیزهاش رو داشت که براساس سنت تاریخی و هژمونی مسلطش بر غرب آسیا، باید تبدیل به قدرت نخست منطقهای و ژاندارم خاورمیانه بشه.در این راه، به قدرت رسیدن مردی دانا و خردمند مانند ریچارد نیکسون در آمریکا و پایهگذاری دکترین نیکسون به شاه و رویاهایش برای ایران کمک شایانتوجهی کرد. نیکسون، مردی بود که به درستی میفهمید هیچ کس به اندازهیمحمدرضا شاه، درک درست و دقیقی از خاورمیانه نداره و آمریکا بهتره به جای مزاحمتهای بیهوده برای طرحهای ایران در خلیج فارس، پشت دست شاه بازی کنه.شوروی که به شدت نگران این پیوند استراتژیک بود، البته موقعیتی چشمگیر در جنوبیترین نقطهی شبه جزیرهی عربستان یافت و تونست با روی کار آوردن یک رژیم مارکسیستی-لنینیسی در یمن جنوبی، جای پایی در منطقه پیدا کنه. این موفقیت، به سرعت جهان کمونیستی رو به سمت گسترش نفوذش به عمان، همسایهی یمن جنوبی کشوند و منطقهی پرکشکمش "ظفار" بستری بود که میتونست محل یک جنگ سرنوشتساز برای براندازی سلطنت مسقط رو فرآهم کنه.حکومت عمان حتا با پشتیبانی بریتانیاییها هم در دفع خطر و زدن ریشهی شورشیان ظفار ناکام بود و اگر عمان از دست میرفت، شوروی در استراتژیکترین تنگهی جهان، تنگه هرمز تسلطی خطرناک پیدا میکرد.اپیزود ۷۳ مدبویز که آغازگر فصل هفتم ماست، به روایت خاورمیانه ۱۹۶۰ و ۷۰، دکترین نیکسون، روابط نیکسون و شاه و تلاش شوروی برای یافتن جای پایی در منطقه میپردازه. این اپیزود، اپیزود نخست از سهگانهی جنگ طفار مدبویزه که در اون پاسخ میدیم، چرا شاه، به دنبال کسب برتری نظامی در غرب آسیا و ساختن یک ارتش بسیار قدرتمند بود و به چه میاندیشید؟محمدرضا پهلوی در لحظهی انتخابی بسیار نفسگیر و سرنوشتساز قرار گرفته بود ... بیستششم شهریور ۲۵۸۴ / ۱۴۰۴گوینده: مجتبی حصامینویسنده: ساسان آقایییادبود این شماره: برگزاری نخستین انتخابات تاریخ ایرانتقدیم شماره ۷۳ به: تمامی جانباختگان خیزش مهسا * منابعی که در نوشتن این اپیزود از اونها استفاده شده، در زیر لیست میشه:منابع انگلیسی:1.

The Lyceum Movement is a nationwide grassroots organization that aims to build a healthier public discourse by bringing diverse groups of people together to investigate first principles. Every August, Lyceum hosts a big event in Des Moines: the Tallgrass Ideas Festival. And for the last three years, Wisdom of Crowds has been there, hosting a live taping of our podcast.This year, the Festival's theme was trust. We hosted an episode about trust and technology, a topic on everybody's mind. Our two guests were Daniel Corrigan, a philosophy professor at Iowa State University who focuses on the theory and practice of rights, and August Lamm, an artist, activist and writer who has distinguished herself by leading an active creative life completely off the grid — in New York, to boot. This was an engaging conversation about AI, work, time and happiness. I think it's one of our best this year.Santiago Ramos starts the conversation with a quote from the late Henry Kissinger, who claimed that trusting AI requires more blind faith than the scientific method. Are we becoming less modern when we trust the “mechanical oracle” of AI? What does it mean to trust AI? Daniel, in his philosophical way, clarifies the terms. We can only trust people, he says, not machines. Machines can be reliable, but not trustworthy. So the question is: do we trust the companies that make the machines? August, for her part, says that we need to go back to first principles. Why do we need these machines in the first place? Why do we need social media? Why do we need AI? Why do we need everything to be so fast?The episode concludes with some interesting questions from the audience, about AI and natural resources; the difficulty discerning reality from fantasy; and how we can make software better. It's well worth your time.Required Reading:* The Kissinger quote comes from this article.* Palantir's one-pound contract with the British NHS.* Lyceum Movement. * Tallgrass Festival of Ideas.* Daniel Corrigan webpage on Philpapers.* August Lamm's homepage.* Santiago Ramos, “The People v. the Oracle” (WoC).

Saving Elephants | Millennials defending & expressing conservative values
Few forerunners of the modern conservative movement are as important, little known, and underappreciated as Frank Meyer. Meyer possessed the IT factor that made women want him and men want to be associated with him. He used that in his early years to advance Marxism in England—building an impressive Marxist organization that had the attention of UK's government, dating the Prime Minister's daughter while calling for the violent overthrow of the Prime Minister's government, and becoming a national celebrity as the nation debated whether he should be exiled. But later in life, when he turned to the Right, that same charisma was used to help William F. Buckley build a fledgling conservative movement that ultimately changed the politics of the nation. Joining Josh to discuss this most remarkable life is Daniel J. Flynn, author of his latest book: The Man Who Invented Conservatism: The Unlikely Life of Frank S. Meyer. About Daniel J. Flynn From spectator.org Daniel J. Flynn, a senior editor of The American Spectator, serves as a visiting fellow at the Hoover Institution for the 2024-2025 academic year. His books include Cult City: Harvey Milk, Jim Jones, and 10 Days That Shook San Francisco (ISI Books, 2018), Blue Collar Intellectuals: When the Enlightened and the Everyman Elevated America (ISI Books, 2011), A Conservative History of the American Left (Crown Forum, 2008), and Intellectual Morons: How Ideology Makes Smart People Fall for Stupid Ideas (Crown Forum, 2004). In 2025, he releases his magnum opus, The Man Who Invented Conservatism: The Unlikely Life of Frank S. Meyer. He splits time between city Massachusetts and cabin Vermont. About The Book Frank Meyer devised the blueprint for American conservatism—fusionism—championed by Barry Goldwater, Ronald Reagan, and so many to this day. Yet long before and far away, Communists in London chanted “Free Frank Meyer!” to block the deportation of a comrade who was their cause célèbre. Those fervent Marxists could never have predicted that their hero would one day provide the intellectual energy necessary to propel conservatives to political power. The Man Who Invented Conservatism unveils one of the twentieth century's great untold stories: a Communist turned conservative, an antiwar activist turned soldier, and a free-love enthusiast turned family man whose big idea captured the American Right. This intellectual migration coincided with a clandestine affair inside 10 Downing Street, service as a lieutenant to the man who later constructed the Berlin Wall, and neighborly chats with the pop-star and poet celebrity next door. Present at the creation of National Review, Meyer helped launch Joan Didion's writing career. From H. G. Wells to Henry Kissinger to Milton Friedman, he rubbed shoulders with everyone who mattered. Having discovered Meyer's previously unexamined correspondence in an old soda warehouse, Daniel J. Flynn documents this saga in The Man Who Invented Conservatism, exposing the rivalries, jealousies, friendships, and fights that shaped the movement and what it means to be a conservative today.
Ghost unpacks the historic opening of U.S.-China relations under Richard Nixon and Henry Kissinger, examining how their secret diplomacy reshaped the global order. He explores the motives behind Nixon's outreach to Beijing, the strategic calculations of the Cold War, and how this pivot shifted America's balance of power with the Soviet Union. The episode also highlights the long-term consequences of this move, from economic entanglement to today's geopolitical tensions with China. With clear analysis and historical context, Ghost connects the dots between past maneuvers and the challenges now facing U.S. foreign policy.

01:02:26 – Nixon Ends the Gold Standard: A Controlled Demolition of the DollarMarking the anniversary of August 15, 1971, the host recounts how Nixon severed the dollar's tie to gold, ending the Bretton Woods system. He details the lead-up, including the removal of silver from U.S. coinage, France's gold repatriation under De Gaulle, and the resulting shift from a stable bi-metallic economy to a fiat system fueling inflation, de-industrialization, and wealth transfer. 01:17:13 – De-Industrialization, Debt Expansion, and the Rise of Crony CapitalismExplains how taking the dollar off gold dovetailed with free trade policies and the 1973 formation of the Trilateral Commission. America's manufacturing base was hollowed out, trade surpluses ended, and debt skyrocketed from $371 billion in 1971 to $37 trillion today. The conversation ties this to corporate consolidation, zombie companies kept alive by central bank policy, and a rigged system benefiting elites. 01:22:33 – The Petrodollar's Decline and Global De-DollarizationReviews the 1970s Kissinger-brokered petrodollar agreement with Saudi Arabia, its quiet disappearance last year, and the shift toward multi-currency oil sales. Discusses BRICS expansion, the ruble's rebound after being gold-linked in 2022, and the dollar's shrinking share of global trade from 53% to the low 40s. Notes that central banks are hoarding gold over their own currencies. 01:44:06 – National Security State Origins and the Truman LegacyReads and comments on a Lou Rockwell article tracing the 1947 creation of the CIA, NSA, and the modern national security state. Argues that Truman's policies institutionalized interventionism, subverted the republic's founding principles, and laid the groundwork for perpetual war and surveillance. Links these shifts to Israel's 1948 recognition, Cold War militarization, and the influx of Nazi scientists under Operation Paperclip. 01:52:06 – The 80-Year Cycle, Operation Paperclip, and Cultural TransformationReflects on how the summer of 1947 reshaped U.S. governance through security agencies, covert power structures, and foreign entanglements. Notes the cultural influence of imported Nazi scientists, with Wernher von Braun as a public face, and draws connections to Cold War propaganda and the militarization of space. 02:00:58 – JFK's Secret Societies SpeechReading and analysis of JFK's 1961 warning about “secret societies” and “monolithic conspiracies,” framing it as timeless advice against government secrecy and press complicity. 02:07:44 – Operation Paperclip & Nazi InfluenceReview of how former Nazi scientists were integrated into U.S. programs after WWII, influencing aerospace, weapons development, and Cold War strategy, with Wernher von Braun as a central figure. 02:15:39 – CIA & MKUltra OriginsExposes early CIA abuses, including the MKUltra mind-control program, as part of a broader national security state agenda to manipulate populations and undermine dissent. 02:47:09 – Trump, Tariffs, and Trade RisksCritiques Trump's tariff strategy as potentially damaging to consumers and allies, warning it could backfire by pushing more nations toward BRICS-style trade blocs. 03:07:17 – NASA Moon Base Plans & Apollo SkepticismNASA's push for a 100-kilowatt lunar reactor sparks analysis of the Artemis program, U.S.–China competition, and a deeper dive into why America hasn't returned to the moon in decades, despite having done so multiple times in the past. 03:33:56 – Space Race & Global Power ShiftReflection on how space exploration intersects with geopolitical changeovers, comparing today's “fourth turning” to post-WWII institution building, and speculating on the existence of a secret space program. 03:45:54 – Red Heifer Prophecy & Third TempleMr. Anderson connects current events in Israel to biblical prophecy, questioning modern evangelical support for temple reconstruction and warning about theological and political implications. 03:50:56 – Decline of Religious ActivismCritique of modern Christian leadership for failing to visibly oppose cultural trends such as the transgender movement, contrasting this with past Catholic and evangelical activism. 03:58:52 – Gold Standard Anniversary & Fiat Currency WarningMarking the anniversary of Nixon taking the U.S. off the gold standard, the host warns about the destructive effects of fiat currency and urges listeners to consider precious metals.

In this episode, Sean and James explore President Nixon’s escalating struggle to achieve “peace with honor” through further Vietnamization, secret diplomacy, and expanded military operations. Key topics include the exposure of the My Lai Massacre, the improving yet strained condition of South Vietnam’s military, Henry Kissinger’s failed secret talks, and the controversial U.S. and ARVN invasion of Cambodia—an operation that dealt temporary blows to Communist forces but triggered massive protests at home, including the deadly Kent State shootings. The invasion marked a turning point, widening the war and intensifying domestic division, while yielding limited long-term strategic gains.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In a nod to one of the worst people of the 20th century, the government has been covertly poisoning the general public for decades through the water supply with fluoride, atrazine, and glyphosate. The water that isn't being poisoned is stolen by multinational food conglomerates like Nestlé. Kissinger would also appreciate the role of Public-Private Partnerships in the ownership of the water supply, as cities vote to outsource the task of managing public water utilities. Milei is continuing the policy of privatizing the water supply of Argentina to a state-owned water conglomerate in Israel. NGOs like the United Nations are also making decisions on access to water based on dubious climate science and doomer scenarios.

The death of Henry Kissinger at 100 years old was celebrated by those who understood his role in some of the most destructive decisions in American and world history. From the endless wars to the Petrodollar paradigm to his push for a world government, the man was always involved when the wars kicked off, usually because he was the one authorizing the actions. From Vietnam, Cambodia, and Laos, to East Timor, Bangladesh, Argentina, and Chile, Kissinger ordered the bombings of civilians through “terror bombing” campaigns that dropped twice as many bombs on Southeast Asia than all of World War 2 combined. His use of Agent Orange, napalm, cluster bombs, and land mines puts him in a category of evil that few can comprehend. The merchant of death has finally gone to Hell, and the world will be a better place because of it.
